aclementine Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 Are any of their books (carving, PAT, SNS, RC) worth the money? From your experience, which ones would you highly recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaika Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 I thought the PAT IQ publications were really useful since they were like practice exams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
predentgirl Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 where do you purchase these publications and how much do they cost. Also, do you think they are harder/easier than the real DAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aclementine Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 predentgirl, you can order them from their website: http://www.iqpublications.com/ or some book stores have them in stock as well chaika, were the carving and RC books helpful? What's the format of the books? Do they have strategies, questions, and practice exams? I really need strategies to improve carving, and need more RC practice material too.

chaika Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 The PAT was slightly harder on the real thing, the RC I think I got lucky on the DAT cause they were science related but the types of questions were similar to the IQ pubs, I can't really remember what the Natural Sciences book was like... I got mine secondhand. EDIT: The books were set up as practice exams, I don't remember there being any tips other than in the carving one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uwodent2014 Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 I bought the carving book about 6 weeks ago it was alright but the newer topstar book was better IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aclementine Posted October 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 so essentially to do well on carving, the materials I need are Topstar, IQ, and CDA soaps? Is there anything else I should do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uwodent2014 Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I'd recommend just topstar and CDA soaps buying both topstar and IQ may be a bit redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiniti Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Where can you get the topstar book on just the PAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Pepper Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I hear IQ pub's RC is pretty helpful, but why does it have to be so expensive? I mean it's just 3 single RC tests...and it's like 44.95+tax+shipping Is this worth it?...or is Kaplan + TopScore enough...if I'm getting like 14/17 questions/passage at the moment on Kaplan... Is Kaplan's RC too easy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uwodent2014 Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I don't think topstar has a book on the pat check their website tho http://www.topstarinterview.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiniti Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 yea i checked their website and it doesn't seem like they have anything for the PAT. So is IQ Pub. the best for PAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
